Question

Transcribed Image Text:**Problem Statement:**
A process creates a radioactive substance at the rate of 1 g/hr, and the substance decays at an hourly rate equal to \(\frac{1}{10}\) of the mass present (expressed in grams). Assuming that there are initially 20 g, find the mass \(S(t)\) of the substance present at time \(t\), and find \(\lim_{t \to \infty} S(t)\).
